[Dr. Borden interviews Jane Doe for the first time]
Jane Doe : I didn't even dream last night. I was really hoping I would, you know? I thought maybe it would... I just... Someone did this to me, took away my whole life, and I can't do anything.
Dr. Borden : I got you a coffee and a tea this morning. Which would you prefer? Well, go ahead. Try them.
Jane Doe : [Jane takes a drink from the left cup of coffee and then the right cup of tea] Uh, I like this one. This one tastes like grass trimmings.
Dr. Borden : There you go. Number one, you remember what grass trimmings taste like. And two, you figured out you're a coffee person. You're not helpless. We're defined by our choices. You just don't remember yours. So, keep trying new things. See what your body remembers. Or make new choices. The more you make, the less helpless you'll feel. Even if nothing ever comes back you can still find yourself.

[Dr. Borden tells Asst. FBI Deputy Director Mayfair and Agent Weller about the drugs in Jane Doe's system]
Dr. Borden : Are you familiar with the PKM-zeta inhibitor, commonly known as 'ZIP'?
Bethany Mayfair : Doctor, you and I have very different ideas of what 'commonly' means.
Dr. Borden : Zeta Interacting Protein. It's an experimental drug being tested with PSD sufferers - Rape victims, soldiers who've seen combat. Used sparingly, it can erase selective memories.
Bethany Mayfair : And you found traces of it in our girl?
Dr. Borden : No. Not traces. Her whole system is flooded with it. I - I've never seen anything like it before. It's created a chemically induced state of permanent amnesia. She can't remember who she is, where she came from, nothing... before she crawled out of that bag in Times Square.
Kurt Weller : So, what does this got to do with me?

[Dr. Borden explains Jane's memory to Agent Weller]
Dr. Borden : Her narrative memory has been obliterated. But her procedural memory still seems to be intact.
Kurt Weller : So, she can walk, talk, understand the world.
Dr. Borden : Yeah, conceptually, it all seems to be there, but the specifics are cloudy. For instance, she knows what music is but doesn't remember The Beatles.
Bethany Mayfair : And she'll never get her memory back?
Dr. Borden : Honestly, we have never had a case like this before. And when I say 'we', I mean the entirety of medical science. So, it's possible that something familiar could trigger her memory. But there is no way to know for sure.
